I LOVE THIS BOOK!
It left me with a warm and cozy feeling. Not the traditional read for me, but I enjoyed that differences in the books I usual read. For example; we dont hear the male perspective, first adjective to come to mind for female leading character is Quirky, no description of sexual activities and contains a small town of easy to keep track of supporting characters. I seriously would watch this on say Lifetime or Hallmark.

I had to take a second look at the author's name! This felt like one of Janet Evanovich'S novel. This book will make you laugh out loud, and it will also make you cry.

Kristan Higgins is now on my "Have to Buy" list. This book had a great story, great characters and made me smile and cry. There are only a few authors out there that can make me laugh out loud and cry in the same book and she is one of them.
The only drawback - I want to know what happens to everyone after the ending especially Jonah and Maggie and Malone.
Great Book!

This one is great! I won't go into details because you guys have received enough reviews that have the summary already outlined. I'll keep it simple and honest for you :)
Oddly enough, there were a lot of similarities to my own life because of the somewhat lonely life I led prior to marrying my own "Malone", who's character closely defines my own husband. I laughed, I cried and had myself wishing I lived in a small town running a cafe and creating my own special dishes that people would remember me by. :)
I loved that she was involved with the community and everyone was a part of her extended family, acting as a family should....with love, lots of humor and happy endings during tough times.
This book is a great read for an afternoon of lying back in the Lazy-Girl chair, a cup of hot chocolate with a touch of Amaretto and some homemade cookies to go along with the homemade goodness of this book. You won't regret reading it :)
